A right prism is a prism in which the top and bottom polygons lie on top of each other so that the vertical polygons connecting their sides are not only parallelograms, but rectangles. A prism that is not a right prism is known as an oblique prism. If, in addition, the upper and lower bases are rectangles, then the prism is known as a cuboid. A polyhedron (plural: polyhedra) is a three - dimensional figure made up of sides called faces, each face being a polygon. A polygon is a two dimensional figure made up of line segments called edges, that are connected two at a time at their endpoints. In a polyhedron, several polygonal faces meet at a corner (vertex). All prisms in this document are right prisms.
